AuthorTopic: What is Paul's worst moment after the Beatles? (Read 10395 times)

Wayne L.

I think Paul's worst moment as an artist after the Beatles would have to be his rock movie debacle Give My Regards To Broadstreet since he probably thought it was still the 60's in his mind & this was his sequel to A Hard Day's Night as well as having the worst Beatles covers ever by the former Beatle himself sadly.

Wayne always slags on 'GMRTB', but he remembers the movie more so than the music. 'Worst' Beatle covers by any other Beatle? Did John and George ever cover and record Beatle tunes? If they did, its not coming to me right now. Anyways, I like the soundtrack ( a lot) and the movie was dumb, but its got some decent footage.

How do I answer this? Let me count the ways ...BroadstreetLetting Linda play in his bandDriving Rain, Off The Ground, Macca 2, At The Speed Of Sound, ... on and on (BUT there are some gems scattered here and there)His "books" - poetry (= lyrics, some of which had Lennon input!), paintings.His "classical" stuff. Yawn.

That's enough!

Paul's fans might get hot under the collar when he gets "bashed" in the media, and on web boards. But by golly, he has set himself up nicely for a walloping, hasn't he?

John and George in concerts. John's one-to-one concert, and Toronto.

George: many occasions: Japan, 1974 North American tour, Prince's Trust.

But as a re-work in the studio, which is prob what you mean, no. Only NOT GUILTY is

Much rather hear Linda than Yoko (the slant eyed satan) screaming on stage.

Come on Ydoll. Lets take 'Off The Ground' (love that entire album) and 'At The Speed Of Sound' off that list and enter 'Pipes Of Peace' and 'Press To Play'. (I know i'm setting myself up for a Paul bashing, but it had to be done.)

**I thought half of 'Driving Rain' was fantastic and the other half was blah. If only there was a happy medium**

I love the whole "Off the Ground" album. 'Pipes of Peace' I could probably do without, but I'd rather have it than not. I love 'Stranglehold' off of "Press to Play". The only thing I really can't get into is the 'Liverpool Sound Collage'.

Jeepers i'm tuned,,,I spelled 'peace' as 'piece' in my oroginal post. Had to change it (thanks Jr), but i agree with what you posted. I love 'stranglehold' too (actually I like a lot of that album), but would have to sub this one for 'SOS' as I like that album better.

For me, it's the WINGS WILD LIFE album in 1972, because there's no remarkable song on it. It was a rarely rehearshed recorded session of a nervous band led by an unsafe feeling bandleader, so ........Broadstreet is musically ok I think, not a hit, but ok. But the film is terrible I have to agree. Klaus
